All tested and ready for the online #JChampions conference tomorrow! A lot of wires and cameras, a piano, LED strip, mix panel... what can possibly go wrong?! ;-) Live stream tomorrow with a look at music with #Kotlin, #JavaFX #MIDI, #FXGL, #VirtualThreads, and more!

Join my son Vik and me at 19h CET on YouTube:

In part 11 of my #JFXInAction interviews, we look at game development. #FXGL is a library created by Almas Baim that helps us create #JavaFX games. But it’s much more than games! With the integrated Goal-Oriented Action Planning (#GOAP) functionality, it can use game technology and AI to solve any goal, based on actions and preconditions. In this video, Almas live codes such a solution with a minimal amount of code!

The first 2024 update of my ebook, "Getting Started with Java on the Raspberry Pi," is now available via https://webtechie.be/books/. 20 extra pages describing a joystick-controlled game with @pi4j and the #JavaFX #FXGL library of Almas Baim. And with an interview with Almas!

This was fun! A live stream to do a game application code walk-through together with Almas Baim. We talked about #JavaFX, #FXGL, @jbangdev, @sdkman, and much more...

#fxgl is probably the game engine with the most reasonable api i've seen so far.
